Gawd my legs are sore

Sharon & Chris came down to see their Mum yesterday & of course they brought Liam & Renee with them, our two grandchildren. Well, 2 out of 5 1/2 anyway. They are pretty active little tackers, so after a shopping blitz, lunch & a mad ramble through all the games in my puter, vague sounds of boredom began to be heard.

Stupid had a brainwave. Stupid bought a pushbike a while ago so that he could accompany Herself on rides to get a bit fitter for both of us, but it hasn't happened a lot. Herself's co ordination & muscle control is not what it used to be. Chris had the forsight to pack the kids bikes into the back of the wagon & bring them down. So after we established that the tyres on my bike had gone flat from disuse & inflated them, we went for a ride. Quite a long one actually. Well, not all that long really for a couple of young active kids, but quite far enough for an old fellow thats not particularly fit.

It was one of those golden moments that are to be stored away very carefully & brought out to enjoy all over again on a gloomy winters day, or nights when sleep is proving elusive. So yeah, my legs are sore today, but its a really good sort of a sore. I may well carry on doing it on a daily basis when Herself is having her afternoon nap. I could certainly do with the exercise.
